The Dalles Spring Community Clean Up event that usually takes place in May of each year has been cancelled for 2021. The Dalles Public Works announced they cancelled the event to maintain social distancing and minimize the possible spread of COVID-19. They do say long-time Spring Community Clean Up co-sponsor The Dalles Disposal is accepting yard debris, from The Dalles city residents only, at no charge during the month of April if taken to the transfer station at 1317 West First Street on weekdays between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Landscape care companies and non-residential properties are not eligible. For more information on this option contact The Dalles Disposal at (541) 298-5149. The Dalles Public Works says it hopes to bring back the cleanup in 2022.
